Transplantation of stem cells in the acute ischemic myocardium (AMI) may play a role in the recovery of cardiac function. Here, we investigated the ability of amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal cells (AFC) for phenotypic conversion to vascular cells and cardiomyocytes (CM) when autotransplanted in a porcine model of AMI.
